There's nothing worse that looking at a menu and wanting two entrees with equal desire. Roti has solved that with its platter selection. Our favorite is the vegetable platter (chicken and lamb are also available), featuring a veggie samosa (crispy on the outside and soft on the inside) complete with chutney and tamarind, two vegetarian entree samples, rice, naan or roti, and a dessert. Our favorite combo is the kofta masala (a vegetable and cheese dumpling in creamy herbed tomato sauce) and allo baingan (potatoes and eggplant) with roti (unleavened whole wheat bread) and kheer (rice pudding). The saag paneer and aloo gobi are excellent options as well, but in all honesty, with the sampler, there's no bad move. And that, friends, is the beauty of the Roti platter.
